End Times ideology and the PM

There’s been a lot in the media about ideology trumping scientific research findings at Canada Fisheries and Oceans. I feel that it’s not so much that “ideology” is overruling science when it comes to threatened eco-system habitats of, for example, wild fish stocks in Canada. Rather, it may be more that theologically based perspectives are trumping science, with Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s Conservatives at the nation’s political helm.

One only need look at the sometimes blatant anti-science thinking and policies of our Harper, who’s known to be a practicing Evangelical Christian and Bible believer.

If their Biblical convictions are any indication, healthy and pristine Earthly eco-systems, the latter which is generally well-aligned with scientific caution, are apparently pretty much dispensable. For, according to the Book of Revelations, Earth is to eventually, or even imminently, be laid waste for a considerable period of time — if not permanently.

So, really, why the hell worry about an unhealthy state of the planet’s environment — especially when there are so many jobs to be had?
